If you start from Park City the entire trail is basically downhill. We really enjoyed the views the whole way, even along I-80. Lots of cute little tidbits of info along the way.

We started in Daybreak, at 11400 So and rode north. Traveling north has a constant uphill grade and we were fighting a strong headwind. It gets pretty smelly near the Dannon plant. The northernmost part of the trail (north of 6200) drops in elevation really quickly, which was really fun. It would be fun to try this riding the other direction.

Don’t bother riding south of the Riverdale city office unless you want a 1mile quick loop - at the footbridge the trail turns to gravel. Head north and its lovely with a few short inclines; great for beginner cyclists to learn gearing and control. Lots of dogs and pedestrians so take it easy and ride early!

This is a great trail! Very scenic, pretty flat and easy. Takes a little over an hour to bike.

This is a really nice trail, but some areas have absolutely no shade so it's super hot! Another problem is there are no garbage cans for responsible pet owners to dispose of their doggy bags so you see they either leave the poop on the trail or throw the bag in the bushes because they don't want to carry the bag the whole walk. We prefer the Ogden parkway trail.

If I had a horse or a fat bike, maybe, but I won’t be coming back on my road bike fitted with 32mm Schwalbe Marathoners. As another reviewer said, it’s rocks, not gravel. And heading west, there is absolutely nothing to see that would make the difficult ride through the desert worth it.

My daughter and I recently set out to walk the entire JRT. We had walked only a short part of it in Murray up to this point. We were so impressed by the entire trail system! The whole route is well marked and easy to follow. There are sections that are quiet and secluded while others are closer to town and roads. There are wonderful bridges all along the trail as well. I'm proud to say we made it! I recommend this trail to everyone and am so glad to see tax dollars being put towards a wonderful outdoor experience!

Did this trail on a road bike for the first time today and it is not what I was expecting. Gorgeous nature and love the feeling, it’s crazy ups and downs the whole time between Lehi and Riverton. Love it for the beauty and the challenge. Definitely will do again.

The trail from Riverdale to Fort Bonaventure is great. From the Fort north can be questionable as far as feeling safe. And about 2 miles south of Riverdale it becomes a dirt trail. So - limited safety, limited comfort for a trail that is so long!
